Ohio Insider: Hard-Throwing Recker Makes His Commitment

Owen Recker RHP / 1B / Kalida, OH / 2019

KALIDA - As one of the hardest throwers at the Future Games, it didn’t take college coaches long to discover Owen Recker.

A month later the Kalida junior has decided on a college destination with Kent State the beneficiary.

“Coach (Mike) Birkbeck sent a text to my coach and after the Future Games I gave him a call,”  said the 6-4 225-pounder in reference to Kent’s pitching coach. “It was just a normal conversation. He liked how I pitched and told me to get in contact with their head coach (Jeff Duncan) and he’d make me an offer.”
